With Dreamforce only a week-ish away, it seems like a good time to share some sessions I'm excited about and give you some reasons why: Go with the Flow Builder Roadmap: https://lnkd.in/gWkExbxp This is the 1st session of the whole event and has all of the big hitters on the Flow Builder Product team. It'll give you some key insights on what's to come in the near future so you can plan out some future projects and prepare yourself skill wise for what's to come. Sure there are some AI sessions at the same time, but don't worry, there will be a TON more later so you can get your fill of that later in the day :-) #dreamforce #df233 #salesforce #flowbuilder #flows

Screen Flows allow you to build custom-guided wizards so users can enter and process data step-by-step. But this tool can extend the functionality with progress indicators. Andreea talks us through how to visualize Screen Flows efficiently. https://bit.ly/3Q9ACrx #Salesforce

Hi #connections, Today we are going to see what is 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 and how we can use in salesforce ? 🌟 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data. 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋's query language gives clients the power to ask for the exact data they need and nothing more, which can save time and bandwidth in addition to making it easier to build complex applications. Here are some of the benefits of using 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 in Salesforce ⬇ 🌟 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞: 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 can improve the performance of your applications by reducing the number of API requests that need to be made. 🌟 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 gives you more flexibility in how you query your data. You can request only the data that you need, and you can structure the data in a way that is most convenient for your application. 🌟 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭: 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 can simplify the development of your applications by making it easier to create and consume APIs. To use 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 in Salesforce, you need to enable the GraphQL API. Once the GraphQL API is enabled, you can start using it to query your data. ✨ To enable the 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 API, go to Setup > API > 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋. Then, click Edit and select Enabled. Once the GraphQL API is enabled, you can start using it to query your data. There are a few different ways to do this: ✨ 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝: The GraphQL Playground is a web-based tool that allows you to interactively query your Salesforce data. To access the GraphQL Playground, go to Setup > API > GraphQL. Then, click Playground. ✨ 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐚 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐐𝐋 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭: A GraphQL client is a tool that can be used to send GraphQL queries to an API. There are many different GraphQL clients available, both open source and commercial. ✨ 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐚 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐥: Some Salesforce development tools, such as Salesforce DX and Salesforce Extensions for VS Code, support GraphQL queries. For more detail you can follow this documentation:

Hi Everyone, Excited to share my latest blog post with you all, I have just published a new blog that I think you'll find really interesting. In this blog post I have shared my thoughts on the step-by-step process of bulk deleting the inactive picklist values from salesforce org. Check out the full article here https://lnkd.in/dTZmc9wv I would love to hear your thoughts, so feel free to comment and share your views. I have been researching this area for a while, and I believe my blog provides valuable insights. Thanks #salesforceohana #salesforcedevelopers

Did you know that Salesforce's Schema Builder offers a simple and intuitive way to create custom objects, fields, and relationships? With its drag-and-drop interface, you can easily design and modify your data model, making it a user-friendly experience. #Salesforce #SchemaBuilder #CustomObjects #DataModeling

So I've just found a seemingly quiet but quite nice update to Dynamic Forms (seemingly part of the Summer '24 release). It looks the field visualisation when using conditional visibility within Dynamic Forms has been updated to now automatically convert the field section from 1-column to 2-column if your a field is in one of the columns and is conditionally hidden. In the GIF shown below you can see how the field for Related Object (a picklist) takes up the entire length of the row, but is then pushed to the left-hand column when my Flows lookup field is able to appear on the page. I didn't see this in the release notes, but it's potentially quite a nice update. Has anyone else noticed this yet? If so, what do you think of the update? #salesforce #trailblazers #trailblazercommunity #awesomeadmins #dynamicforms #lightningappbuilder
